So I just received my Grifos, I am quite new to fountain pens, I put the ink cartridge in and the pen was upright for about 30 mins in a pen holder when I realized all the ink leaked out of the nib into the cap and infact through the cap and onto some papers below.. is this normal for fountain pens? Are we suppose to avoid keeping the nib facing downwards?
taslamHello, Just to check with you. Are you sure you have not shake the pen to speed up ink flow? Sometime trying to speed up needed time an excess of ink is pushed down and after a while it drop into the cap. Also is possible that the ink cartridge wasn't fit correctly and ink drop. Small things to be checked and then if needed you could contact me for further assistance or point replacement. To contact me straight please write to info@grifos-pens.it Best regards from Italy Maurizio
